Mono's music evokes powerful emotions, taking listeners on a journey through melancholic melodies and soaring crescendos. Their live performances are nothing short of awe-inspiring, leaving audiences in a state of transcendence.

Rock label from Berlin, Germany closely connected to the Berlin-based international musicians' collective [a=The Ocean (2)].

Veteran Japan-based instrumental rock band Mono return with Oath, their 12th full-length album of genre-defying contemporary classical orchestration and transcendental guitar soundscapes in a career that has spanned four decades. Recorded and mixed with longtime friend and collaborator, Steve Albini, Oath opens like a sunrise with a slowly ascending orchestra and brass section, the full band taking its time to revel in the atmosphere before joining in the splendour.

Throughout the album’s 71-minute runtime, Mono meditates on that theme of time and life in myriad ways. The unhurried evolution of a song that is a hallmark of Mono’s catalog is infused with an air of elegance that elevates Oath to new heights.
